Joseph Küffner (Kueffner)


(31 March 1776 in Würzburg – 9 September 1856 in Würzburg)[1][2] was a German musician and composer who, among other achievements, contributed significantly to the guitar repertory, including chamber music.

Life

He was a violinist with the Würzburg court orchestra,[3][4] and was later, when Würzburg became part of Bavaria (1802), assigned to take charge of military music. At this point he became bandmaster with a Bavarian Army regiment.[3][5]

Music

A quintet of Küffner's for clarinet and strings was once attributed to Carl Maria von Weber,[2] and is still recorded in collections of Weber's music.[6] He composed seven symphonies and a large number of works for various chamber music combinations. His output also contains a substantial quantity of music for classical guitar (some of it being available in modern editions).
